WEIGHTED OPEN LOOP POWER CONTROL IN A TIME DIVISION DUPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

THE INVENTION CONTROLS TRANSMISSION POWER LEVELS IN ASPREAD SPECTRUM TIME DIVISION DUPLEX COMMUNICATION STATION. A FIRST COMMUNICATION STATION TRANSMITS A COMMUNICATION TO A SECOND COMMUNICATION STATION. THE SECOND STATION RECEIVES THE COMMUNICATION AND MEASURES ITS RECEIVED POWER LEVEL. BASED ON, IN PART, THE RECEIVED COMMUNICATION''''S POWER LEVEL AND THE COMMUNICATION''''S TRANSMISSION POWER LEVEL, A PATH LOSS ESTIMATE IS DETERMINED. A QUALITY OF THE PATH LOSS ESTIMATE IS ALSO DETERMINED. THE TRANSMISSION POWER LEVEL FOR A COMMUNICATION FROM THE SECOND STATION TO THE FIRST STATION IS BASED ON, IN PART, WEIGHTING THE PATH LOSS ESTIMATE IN RESPONSE TO THE ESTIMATE''''S QUALITY.
